July 1, 2011 by Jack Leave a Comment

Mui Ne is a nice little town in the middle of Vietnam. The beach is amazing there and for us, it was the point at which we crossed from rainy north Vietnam into sunny south Vietnam. We decided to hire motorbikes out and visit the local sand dunes which are a must see. This photo […]

Snake Village, Eating the beating heart, Hanoi

May 22, 2011 by Jack 4 Comments

In light of Gordon Ramsay’s trip to Vietnam last week I though I would release the video you have all been waiting to see! In his show he ate the beating heart of a snake, quite reluctantly I might add, somewhere in Ho Chi Minh City. We arranged to go to snake village in Hanoi […]

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, December 2010

May 5, 2011 by Jack 1 Comment

What I did… Skip to the images… Arrived in Siagon at 6PM but the recommended guest house was too expensive so we found a place to stay in amongst local houses and the odd local food stall. It felt like we were really a part of the Vietnamese community. Breakfast at the market is always […]

Hue, Vietnam, December 2010

What I did… Skip to the images… So I wake up in the middle of the night and we are broken down at the side of the road! Rather than get another bus to us to take us to Hue, we waited road side until it was fixed! So 9 hours later we get back […]
